Stick with Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate II:Shadows of Amn. These two games are WAY BETTER than Icewind Dale series. Why do I say this? Why such low rating? Because this game is RIDICOUSLY HARD! Even in normal difficulty setting. On top of that in BG and BG2, the gamer feels he is part of the group. There is interactions between party members in BG2(not silent compare to ID and ID2). When you play normal setting in BG and BG2, the gamer is ACTUALLY playing in NORMAL setting!!! I wish GOG.com would give out a "trial version" of this game and not waste my $10. I'm VERY displeased with ID and ID2. I really don't understand how this game has high ratings(must be GOG.com employees themselves or someone who is fanatical about ID and ID2). I will have to side with BG and BG2. The game play is better , no need to create six characters, not having to fight a MOB of MONSTERS when the gamer first starts playing, which I think is ridiculous. If anyone out there has $10, stay away from ID and ID2. Instead, purchase BG or BG2, you'll see what I mean. Then purchase ID and ID2(I would not suggest but try them out, don't take my word for it, try it! I dare any gamer! buhahahaha!). I already have BG, BG2, ID and ID2. I compared both series and I will have to say, BG and BG2 FTW!!! I wish they would of made BG3 or something similar to BG.
